In Zoomorphism Vargassal approach the anthropomorphic aspect evoke in the work. Vargassal explains: “The works humanize as well as contextualize modern animal art as my own take on figurative art.”

The animals, then, become a reflection of either the humans or the world around the humans, portraying emotional states in a deliberately oblique manner. Each painting shows a momentary experience that depicts the coming together of person and animal. Many of the paintings are highly intimate, though not sexual; the human subject is exposed and vulnerable, yet, too, there is an element of empowerment , whims and empath.

Some paintings, however, highlight the ravages humans have wrought on different creatures, inviting the viewer to consider the plight of a now extinct golden frog, or a vanished white rhino in which a woman represents humanity seducing the animal into oblivion.


In zoomorphism the idea of reaching the wildlife with in us , brings the spirit of the viewer closer to the animals and reflects on how We as humans have the tendency to only understand patrons of communication familiar to us and ignore that the wildlife has its own way to communicate. But yet , has emotions and feelings , far more complicated than We though.
